　　参考范文

　　In this picture, we can see that a woman is doing shopping in a supermarket. She chooses a pair of slippers and buys other daily necessaries. Walking beside the place where fresh fruits are sold, she suddenly finds it unnecessary to buy slippers. So she throws them away without any hesitation. Seeing what happens, a customer behind her is shocked by her behaviour.

　　We can learn much from the picture. This phenomenon often occurs around us. Most people hate it when someone does something like this. Those who throw things without thought are believed to lack responsibility to society.

　　That is to say, they only think of convenience to themselves but ignore others’ feelings. So what she does is absolutely wrong. We should establish a good situation where we can do anything delightedly. It is everybody’s duty to keep a clean environment in our world.

　　一、单项填空

　　1．—It’s said that two Chinese engineers were kidnapped by terrorists in Pakistan yesterday.

　　—Yes，________ news came as ________ great surprise.

　　A．the；the

　　B．/；/

　　C．the；a

　　D．/；a

　　解析　考查冠词的用法。the特指上句话提到的那条消息。surprise前面加不定冠词，表可数概念，此处指“一件令人吃惊的事”。

　　2．—You couldn’t have chosen any gift better for me.

　　—________

　　A．Oh，don’t complain about a gift.

　　B．That’s all right.I’ll give you a better one next time.

　　C．I’m glad you like it so much.

　　D．You had a gift for music，don’t you?

　　解析　考查情景交际。第一句话的意思为“你不可能给我选更好的礼物了。”也就是说我对你选的礼物非常满意。所以答语应该表示感谢和高兴。

　　3．The best clothes ________ the man ________ hat morning ________ his fine green coat and his black silk cap.

　　A．that；was wearing；were

　　B．which；wore；were

　　C．which；dressed；was

　　D．that；was having on；was

　　解析　考查定语从句、动词辨析及主谓一致。先行词被形容词的最高级修饰，关系代词应用that。have on可表示状态，但不能用于进行进态。clothes是复数，作主语时谓语动词应用复数。

　　4. Before the war broke out, many people ________ possessions they could not take with them.

　　A．threw away

　　B．put away

　　C．gave away

　　D．carried away

　　解析　考查对动词短语的意义辨析。选项A的意思是“扔掉”；选项B的意思是“把……收拾好；储藏……备用”；选项C的意思是“赠送；分发；泄漏；放弃”；选项D的意思是指“冲走”。根据句子的意思，战争爆发时，许多人把带不走的东西收拾起来。于是本题的正确答案选B。

　　5．Every coin has two sides.Beautiful songs，sometimes，________ be just noise to others.

　　A．must

　　B．would

　　C．may

　　D．should

　　解析　考查情态动词。从第一句话的意思“每个事物都有两方面”分析，此处是拿歌来作为例子，“好听的歌曲对别人可能就是噪音”，may表示“可能”。

　　6. The experiment has________the possibility of t

　　he existence of any life on that planet，but it does not mean there is no life on other planets.

　　A．found out

　　B．pointed out

　　C．ruled out

　　D．carried out

　　解析　句意为：这次试验已经排除了在那个行星上存在生命的可能性，但是这并不意味着在其他行星上就没有生命存在。find out弄清楚；point out指出；rule out排除；carry out执行。

　　7. Such poets as Shakespeare________widely read，of whose works，however，some________difficult to understand.

　　A．are；are

　　B．is；is

　　C．are；is

　　D．is；are

　　解析　句意为：一些诗人，像莎士比亚，(其作品)被广泛阅读，然而，其中一些作品是难以理解的。句中of whose works到句末为非限制性定语从句；第一个空的主语是some poets，故谓语动词用复数形式；第二个空的主语是some of whose works，谓语动词也要用复数形式。

　　8．Examination compositions, together with most business letters and government reports, are the main situations ________ formal language is used.

　　A．in which

　　B．on which

　　C．of which

　　D．for which

　　解析　考查定语从句在语境中的具体运用。先行词为situation应用介词in：in the situation。

　　9．—You seem to have lost your way.________？

　　—Yes.I’m looking for Wangfujing Street.

　　A．What are you looking for

　　B．Are you looking for something

　　C．Need help

　　D．Where are you doing

　　解析　由对话中的Yes可知，此处应为“你是否需要帮助”。B项可以用Yes来回答，但前后意义不吻合。

　　10．The study you have been making ________ the ancient Chinese characters is an instructive job.

　　A．to

　　B．for

　　C．of

　　D．from

　　解析　study在此作“研究”讲，关于某方面的研究，用介词of。

　　11．—What about a moon trip?

　　—What？Are you traveling that way ________ you don’t have a clear picture of the earth?

　　A．when

　　B．where

　　C．after

　　D．since

　　解析　考查状语从句引导词的用法。从句子的意思分析，此处用when引导时间状语从句，表示“在你对地球还没有完全了解的时候(情况下)”的意思。

　　12．He felt rather ________ as he was the only person who wore sportswear at the dinner party.

　　A．in place B．in the way

　　C．by the way

　　D．out of place

　　解析　考查介词短语的用法。out of place不适当的，不恰当的，反义词为in place；in the way碍事，挡道的。

　　13．You will have to see to ________ that the machine is in good condition before using it.

　　A．everything

　　B．yourself

　　C．all

　　D．it

　　解析　it作see to的形式宾语，代替后面的that从句，只有it有此功能。

　　14.

　　A note was on the blackboard ________

　　“All those who have a fever must leave

　　school right now”．

　　A．on which was written

　　B．said

　　C．read

　　D．reading

　　解析　考查非谓语动词作定语。表示“在……上面写着……”，可以用saying, reading, which said, which read或on which were written，因此只能选D。

　　15．He spent the whole day，________ in his study，________ a speech.

　　A．locked；prepared

　　B．being locked；preparing

　　C．locked；preparing

　　D．locking；prepared

　　解析　考查非谓语动词的用法。第一空为过去分词作定语表示被动；第二空为v.-ing作伴随状语，表示和谓语动词表示的动作同时发生。
